Little Monsters

Yesterday Evening the kids and I were downstairs looking for a movie to watch on demand. Zach wanted to watch Goosebumps, but I couldn't find any. I found the movie "Little Monsters". Zach was so excited to watch it. Brooklyn didn't like the title and told me she didn't want to watch it. Tyson came home from work and decided to watch the show with the kids. It really wasn't a scary show and Zach was loving it. I came down and took one look at Brooklyn's face and new I was in trouble. She told me she wanted to go upstairs so we did.
Well, about 11:30 last night she woke up crying. I went in and she said she was afraid. I said of what? She said there were monsters in her room. GREAT! This is all my fault. I tried everything I could think of to help her feel better but she was so scared. So I scooted her over and got into bed with her. She fell asleep without a problem. At 5:45 this morning she was crying and I went in her room and she said, "The monster is getting me." Aghhhh!! I was so mad at myself for letting her watch even part of that dumb movie. And it was a really dumb movie.
I kept trying to figure out who the monster was because he was so obnoxious. It's Howie Mandell from Deal or No deal! I think that is so funny. He was sooo annoying in this movie.

uh oh...haha. you'll have to make some "monster spray" like we had to for tracie when she was little. we'd let her spray it in her closet and under her bed at night and she would go right to sleep. it was really air freshner with a homemade label

That stinks. I started watching Psycho today then decided not to take a chance on a nightmare.

I hope she is over it now.

That's hilarious because when I was a kid I loved this movie. I would make my mom rent it at Halloween time. Looking back, it's a really stupid movie. Sad though that it scared your daughter so much.

Jen, sorry about the monsters in your home now..... :) I had to refuse Spencers need for me to rent the Hulk today. I told him if he wanted to watch it, Sophi would have to be in bed. I didnt want her seeing this normal looking guy turning into some creepy big green thing! Can you imagine those nightmares!
Do you think Brookie will be scared of Deal or No Deal now!?
